Wait but then I thought only one phone number could be used and for one account... If not so, now Prime matchmaking makes sense w.r.t. cheaters, but not for smurfs..

You can have as many Steamaccounts on one phonenumber as you want, but only one of these accounts can be on Prime Matchmaking. They also got your phone number from the steam guard app, as this app can read out your number (as far as I know).

I think this Vac thing is also more used for TF 2, where there has been a massive Vacwafe as LMAObot (or whatever it has been called) has been vacbanned the last days and 10 thousends of its users.

I see. Well, that's good then.

Also, random question, but do Community Servers see if one has been VAC banned (e.g. if they want to keep their servers free of these people)?

Most community servers are VAC secured. There are some, but few, that are not, like ESEA servers. Those are not VAC secured, but uses their own anti-cheat.

you can set VAC on for your server; it'll block the VAC banned people.

Yeah, I know that, but wondered if, for example, an ESEA server (with their own anti cheat) could just refuse the connection of a VAC banned player or not.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive

[Misc]
  • Replaced the penalty for the suicide or disconnection of a player. Instead of the elimination of round-end income, a living enemy player now receives compensation equal to the missed kill reward opportunity.
  • On Valve official servers, the current map will be excluded from the vote options at the end of a match.

This patch is quite good :o

Apparently, amongst the fixes on Cache, throwing stuff through forklift is now reliable and it won't hit some invisible wall.

And some love for spectating. \o/

At least it isn't entirely obvious to opponents since you have to be pretty close, it's still quite obnoxious regardless.
